Dynamo Text Package has been updated!

:new: What’s New

  • Text.FromStringOriginAndScale now supports fontFamily, bold, and italic.
  • Text.GetInstalledFontNames returns the installed font families on the machine.
  • the package is now on .net 8.
  • the repo has been moved to sdk-style build with github actions ci.

Why it Matters

If you use (or want to use) 3d text in Dynamo graphs, this gives you more control over fonts without changing the default behavior.

Shoutout to @Zach_Kron for mocking up the initial code changes!
